Back in 2008, we told you about an innovation called Peanut Butter Slices. Think Kraft Singles, but peel-able peanut butter in lieu of cheese. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) they don't make them anymore, but did we discover their cousins in pouch form? Yes we did.

Justin's makes all sorts of nut butters: hazelnut, almond, peanut, and sweeter variations that include honey, maple, and chocolate. They normally come in jars but now they're also available in easy, squeezy pouches. The Go-Gurt of the peanut butter world?

Push that 0.5 ounces of nut paste (90 calories; 7 grams of fat) straight into your mouth, or onto bread or a banana, or really anything that should be peanut-butterified. Keep a few in your bag for those moments when you can't exactly spoon it straight from the jar.
